Myk Vind 2
4×6 inches Watercolor & Ink
Means “Soft Wind” in Norwegian.
Rosemaling is the folk art that moves like the wind, unbound, flowing as it wills. Every Rosemaling piece I paint is shifting as I create, then landing in a different place than I expect.

Norwegian Cupboard #2 [SOLD]
The desire to rosemal all my walls, doors, and ceilings prompted me to create a series of designs I can envision on cupboard doors in an old farm house in Norway. Rosemaling represents to me creativity in poverty—to meander down an old barn wall with paint strokes is an act of resistance against the darkness of that room. For this reason, Norwegian Rosemaling keeps coming out of me every time I sit with my brush. It is a gift, a sword my Norwegian grandmother gave me to fight the long nights with.
Watercolor and Ink. 8×12 inches.
